Take Back Agile (to it's lightweight productive roots)

Are we getting tired of the kind of "agile" where you don't really have any particular technical practices, change (and improvement) is entirely optional, and you pretty much do waterfall with additional overhead of meetings?

Are we tired of seeing "sprints" and "iterations" used as ways to pressure people into working harder and longer ("pushing velocity"), with no training or learning or even autonomy? Are n-week death marches the ultimate expression of our values?

Are we tired of the kind of "agile" that's all about buzzword compliance and rituals and motivational posters? Aren't we in the industry tired of being shamed by people who think that this weak, soul-less form of agile is what we wanted?
